Based on a 1935 original called the Coronet, the Tessa is a lovely example of the spun aluminum fully indirect lights that were common in stores and offices in the late 1930s.

This particular Streamline style fixture was a mainstay well into the 1950s.

Today, it makes a bold statement in high-ceilinged stairways, foyers, and dining rooms.

Choose the all-aluminum shade (shown) for indirect light, or the glass-and-aluminum shade for additional downcast light.
